Surname: DAWSON
-------------------------

I do not know.Thorton Dawson was in Iowa but before coming to Iowa he was
in Ohio and wanted to find out who his parents were and if they came from
Maryland originally. I am researching Jasper Dawson who is my great great
Grandfather and I am trying to connect the other Dawson living in the area
of Jasper in Iowa at time of his death hoping that some of his family was
living around there after leaving Maryland. Jasper Dawson was born in Maryland
and on one census record in Iowa mentions that his mother was born in Kentucky
but did not know where his father was born. Jasper claims to have been
born in Maryland in the 1830s and sometime about 1860 he pops up alone
in Iowa in Iowa City and entered into the Civil War in the 2nd Iowa Cavalry.
